Wild Berry Guest Farm - B&B and SELF CATERING

Description

On the Giants Castle Rd. Wild Berry, set in the heart of the Drakensberg is a birdwatchers dream. An ideal base to discover the local attractions, explore the farm or enjoy a game of chess or have a quiet (romantic) break. A unique experience.

Set in lovely established and extensive gardens. Take time to relax and enjoy the country atmosphere. We offer B&B accommodation with self-catering facilities on a small farm. Each unit offers clean, comfortable, well appointed accommodation, which is warm in winter, cool in summer and contains bathroom ensuite, TV & Braai facilities.

There is a dining area and kitchen in the s/catering cottages. A lovely dinning room has been created for breakfast or teas. We have built a residents lounge and games room for all family members to enjoy and are able to cater for weddings, private functions etc. (details on request).

Wild Berry is ideally positioned as a base from which to visit several Internationally Renowned attractions. These include the Drakensberg, which is a World Heritage site as well as the unique Lammergeyer Vulture hide, where you can see the extremely rare Bearded Vulture (Lammergeyer). You can also visit the Hlatikulu Crane Sanctuary, a rescue and breeding sanctuary for all three of the crane species found in Southern Africa. It should be noted that the Blue Crane is the national bird of South Africa.

In addition we are only a 20 min drive from the start of the Historic Battlefields along which many sites of the conflicts between Anglo-Boer, Anglo-Zulu and Boer-Zulu can be visited.
